Inventor: MATEOS SOLE ANTONIO
IPC: G10L19/008
Filed: 2009-12-29
Abstract: A method and apparatus to encode audio with spatial information in a manner that does not depend on the exhibition setup, and to decode and play out optimally for any given exhibition setup, maximizing the sweet-spot area, and including setups with loudspeakers at different heights, and headphones. The part of the audio that requires very precise localization is encoded into a set of mono tracks with associated directional parameters, whereas the remaining audio is encoded into a set of Ambisonics tracks of a chosen order and mixture. Upon specification of a given exhibition system, the exhibition-independent format is decoded adapting to the specified system, by using different decoding methods for each assigned group.

Abstract: The present invention provides a new pharmaceutical application of a 15,15-difluoroprostaglandin F 2α  derivative. As a result of intensive studies in order to find a new pharmaceutical application of a 15,15-difluoroprostaglandin F 2α  derivative, it was found that, in a European Phase III clinical, trial for tafluprost, one of the 15,15-difluoroprostaglandin F 2α  derivatives, with patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, tafluprost has actions of growing eyelashes, making eyelashes thicker, and changing the color thereof, that is, has an effect of promoting the growth of hair (eyelashes). Therefore, a 15, 15-difluoroprostaglandin F 2α  derivative is useful as a hair growth promoting agent, and is expected to be useful as an active ingredient of a preventive or therapeutic agent for a disease associated with hair such as alopecia and a hair care product or a hair cosmetic product for regrowing hair, growing hair, increasing hair density, nourishing hair, or the like.

Abstract: In memory circuitry, to ensure that a memory device, such as a DDR3 RDIMM, safely operates in self-refresh mode while the memory controller is powered down and off, the memory device's clock enable (CKE) input is connected to both (i) the CKE signal applied by the memory controller and (ii) a termination voltage provided by the power module. To power down the memory controller, the memory controller drives the CKE signal low, then the power module drives the termination voltage low, then the power module powers down the memory controller. To resume normal operations, the power module powers up the memory controller, then the memory controller drives the CKE signal low, then the power module powers up the termination voltage. By holding the termination voltage low, the memory circuitry ensures that the memory device stays in self-refresh mode while the memory device is powered down and off.

Abstract: A cardiac rhythm management system provides for ambulatory monitoring of hemodynamic performance based on quantitative measurements of heart sound related parameters for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Monitoring of such heart sound related parameters allows the cardiac rhythm management system to determine a need for delivering a therapy and/or therapy parameter adjustments based on conditions of a heart. This monitoring also allows a physician to observe or assess the hemodynamic performance for diagnosing and making therapeutic decisions. Because the conditions of the heart may fluctuate and may deteriorate significantly between physician visits, the ambulatory monitoring, performed on a continuous or periodic basis, ensures a prompt response by the cardiac rhythm management system that may save a life, prevent hospitalization, or prevent further deterioration of the heart.
